My new Ibanez Gio!!

Post by Taps »

I just bought an Ibanez Gio! I am very excited and have been playing it nonstop.

I would love to here from you! What kind of guitar do you play? What brand/model? Are you going to buy another one? Just post what you think!

I will try to post one up here soon when I have time to take one, and then post it on here.

Well I've got my Squire Bullet Strat and my Wasburn WR120 something-or-other. I'm having to do some modding on the pickup selector on the Washburn. It keeps shorting out on me. Currently, it's being held in place with duct tape. \:D/

Technically that's not an Ibanez Gio, it's an Ibanez GRX20ZRD. Gio is the series of inexpensive guitars. ;) What amp do you have?


And now for my gear:
Image
Ibanez (Gio) GRX40 through a Boss MT-2 Metal Zone, Boss DS-1 Distortion, and Zoom G1.x, into the Ibanez amp that came with the guitar. There's quite a list of pedals I have yet to buy.
The acoustic is a Lyon (by Washburn), and the uke I got for free.

Dan, it looks light you need to tighten your tremelo bar.

If I tighten it I can't move it into position...

I may make a video of a runthrough of my sounds sometime...

I have a Kustom amp. Nothing huge but workable. It actually works very well. I am going to get a full sized acoustic but right now I only have a 200 dollar travel guitar. The sound I get on it is AMAZING though.

Oh, and actually I have a Gio, it is the budget version of the RX series that ceases to exist.

I know that lyon rips your fingers to shreds right? I had one that had the highest action i've ever seen on a guitar.

Um... no? The action's not bad, although I wish it felt more like an electric.

Here is a video showing my guitar sounds.

I linked instead of imbedding because on YouTube you can see the annotations that tell you a little about the current settings.
